Chapter 1: Who/What to include?

I will return to the parable of the Rich Fool after Christmas, but here is the list of who and what I plan to include in Chapter 1 of the book:
  • Irenaeus
  • Clement of Alexandria
  • Tertullian
  • Origen
  • The Gospel According to Philip
  • John Chrysostom
  • Augustine
  • Macrina the Younger
  • Ephrem the Syrian
  • The Good Shepherd in Early Christian Art (e.g., the Catacombs of Domitilla and the House Church at Dura-Europos)
  • Illuminations from the Rossano Gospels
  • Byzantine Mosaics, S. Apollinare Nuovo, Ravenna, Italy
I will discuss details of these works after I finish talking about the Rich Fool parable.
